What a week
betsyb wrote: Seems like a lot of hauling. Why not look for a wagon at a yard sale and drill holes in the bottom. Load, wash and drain then lug the wagon.

It drops about 4 feet, then is level for 8 feet, below that is a stone retaining wall planted with honeysuckle, then it goes to a more gentle slope. Just so happens, that is where the two best trees are located, about 20 feet apart on the level 8 feet. We put scrap carpet down under the tables because it is so hard to mow and it was the best way to keep the grass down. I really need to post a picture someplace. We used the lawn tractor with the load hog attached to carry the plants. It carried more, but I had to put in the tail gate and walk along with to keep the plants from sliding out or tipping over. I keep having flashbacks about how pleasant it was in Alabama with a walkout basement. Open the french doors and just roll everything in and out. It was wonderful. One of these days, I will have my dream home. I just have to find plans I like and find the perfect exposure for my plants. |
